> Edmonton teacher suspended for giving 0s
Ugh, this brings bad memories back.
What would your reaction be if you effort so much on a homework you were to research across the semester? You did it but failed the deadline for 15 minutes. It could sound fair you get an instant zero and move on right? Well, what if it turns out the class is Vocational Orientation and the very same work counts as the 60% of your overall final score and there are not extraordinary exams that could save your ass off?
In short I failed an easy class because the bitch for teacher I had didn't accept my homework I put so much effort to complete. And as best as my scores were across the semester the best I could manage because of that was a 4. And for that I had to re-take (and pay for) that class next year with people a grade lesser than me.
It was not a surprise for me when I knew many years later a student committed suicide in front of a teacher (he/she jumped from the 3rd floor and fall upward) at my high school. One thing is prepare students for the real world, but another is to look for minor excuses to make a good student fail so they can get more money from them.
